MUMBAI--India's oilmeal exports in March fell 32% from a year earlier to 430,407 metric tons due to higher domestic prices and sluggish demand from major Asian buyers, the Solvent Extractors' Association of India said Friday.

Total oilmeal exports during the financial year that ended on March 31 declined 13% to 4.85 million tons, the trade body said in a statement.
